Every year or so I try one or more privacy focused keyboards. I always end up right back on SwiftKey after a couple of weeks because most of the keyboards I try have the same problem: the predictions suck.
Ok, I get that surveillance is good for predictions. Put another way, predictions are tough without collecting everything everyone types. Is there a best-of-both-worlds keyboard out there? I’d be patient enough to give it some time to learn how I type and get better.
There’s a fork that supports it, though it looks like it has become inactive, if you care about that https://github.com/erkserkserks/openboard
thanks for making me aware of this, it’s pretty great! the swiping is definitely iffy overall but certainly better than nothing! im mainly just sad that it’s missing my beloved proper black and gray holo theme… sad…
They also haven’t released a version in over a year, or am I missing something? Also doesn’t seem to have a plan for smarter predictions beyond dictionary entries (what OP is looking for)
